Islands Dark
Dark color theme for VS Code, inspired by JetBrains' Islands Dark scheme. Tuned for accurate Go semantic highlighting.
Features
- Distinct colors for type declaration vs reference (white vs teal)
- Distinct colors for function declaration vs call (blue vs tan)
- Bracket-pair-colorization-friendly palette (disable VS Code's built-in for the closest match)
- Full Go / TypeScript / Rust / Python / Markdown / YAML / JSON coverage
Recommended companion settings
For the closest match to GoLand's behavior, add to your settings.json:
{
"workbench.colorTheme": "Islands Dark",
"editor.bracketPairColorization.enabled": false,
"gopls": {
"ui.semanticTokens": true
}
}
gopls.ui.semanticTokens is required for the function/type declaration vs reference distinction in Go.
